What you get: one MP4 per video page, plus images

Pinterest's short videos are idea pins (the app's Reels-style feed). Their JSON lists only a streaming playlist; the tool finds the matching 720p MP4 and checks that it exists. Carousel pins with several slides give one download per slide, video or picture, up to 20.

Which app opens it on iPad?

Files previews it; the Photos app plays videos you have saved to Photos.

Keep it with your photos and media

Photos and videos saved from Safari appear in Photos › Recently Saved on iPad; a downloaded file stays in Files › Downloads until you move or share it.

Good to know on iPad

If Safari is set to save to iCloud Drive, the file appears in iCloud Drive › Downloads.

If the download does not show up on iPad

  • Check Files › Downloads first: Tap Safari's Downloads button to see the status of the download and open the file.
  • Make sure the pin is public. Private pins and secret boards cannot be read without logging in, and this tool never asks for your Pinterest password.
  • Links expire after one hour. If a button stops working, paste the pin link again.
  • A pin.it short link must be complete: copy it again from Share › Copy link.
